Proposal: add CareProvision(EVN) to Scheduling domain

Contents

Summary

This proposal seeks to add the A_CareEvent [identified] CMET to the Scheduling D-MIM and the response R-MIM to the Find Scheduled Encounters query. Oslo University Hospital have a use-case where they'd like to query for 'a scheduled encounter, which is part of an ongoing Careprovision'.

Storyboard

Storyboards require for the following details, all associated with the CareProvision:

It is unknown if the CareProvision (called: Care Period in the OUH specs) has an identifier. It is also unknown if the care provision has a type code.

Proposal details

A CareProvision (see encounter part of the Patient Administration D-MIM) may be associated with (=have components) 0..* encounters. An encounter may be a component of 0..1 CareProvision events. Given that CareProvisions may have components in moods other than EVN (notably: INT), the appointment for the Encounter is part of the CareProvision just as much as the Encounter itself.

Add A_CareEvent [identified] with a COMPonentOf act relationship (cardinality: 0..1) to the ActAppointment class of the Scheduling D-MIM.
